Most-quoted passages
The sentences later courts lift from this opinion, ranked by how many decisions quote each — the parts of the opinion doing the work. These counts are smaller than the citation total above because most of the 13 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“that `By carrying his [Blumlein's] invention back of the domestic filing date of the application which matured into the Whiteley patent, the appellant overcame that patent as a reference for the integrating circuit which is disclosed but not claimed therein,' citing in support thereof the relevant provision of the code, 35 U.S.C. 119 * * *.”
2 later decisions quote this exact passage“in other words, the solicitor frankly concedes that appellant's quoted argument on the point in issue is `absolutely correct, on the facts stated', but the solicitor contends, and we think properly, that appellant's argument is too broad and inapposite with respect to the case at bar.”
2 later decisions quote this exact passage““The rejection by the tribunals of the Patent Office in the case at bar is based not upon the filing date of Whiteley’s foreign application but upon the adverse award of priority of invention against appellant and in favor of Whiteley, the patentee.””
